An EB games employee told games.on.net that the stock had been removed “a few weeks ago” and mentioned that the game might go free-to-play. This is just a rumor however, so we’ll continue following this story to see if WildStar is in fact going F2P.

WildStar didn’t turn out as awesome as it was expected to be, despite much hype and some obvious qualities which were diminished by some glaring flaws, such as the endgame. There was even a lot of turmoil and internal spite in developer Carbine Studios, which lost 60 employees in October 2014, with the staff blaming the management team for a ruinous management – one review by an ex-employee even calls Carbie Studios “A place where morale goes to die…”

Is one of the last subscription-model standard bearers going free-to-play soon? We’ll keep you updated!

Cool. I’m onboard if it makes the transition. Definitely not a fan of subscriptions when I just don’t get the chance to play MMO’s that much, really. F2P and B2P definitely let me go at my own (really slow) pace, and I don’t feel like I’m getting ripped off every month if I don’t play that much.

I mean, I had hoped that Wildstar would be fine without players like me, but what’s done is done. I just hope such a move would indeed help the game out. I’ll definitely be watching this closely. And if it happens, I’ll definitely jump in and give it a try.
